The space
This bright & sunny two-story vacation rental is perfect for your next beach getaway! With beautiful hardwood floors throughout, good quality white linens and towels, comfortable beds and a fully stocked kitchen, you will find all you need in this lovely cottage. We also provide a bottle of local red wine, generous welcome snacks, coffee, tea, sugars and creamers, instant oatmeal, plus filtered & sparkling waters in the refrigerator; all complimentary.

If you have a larger group and you want to be close to each other, then rent Unit B! It is next door and has an identical lay-out to Unit A. We cater to families with children, so we have a Graco pack-n-play, sheet, high chair, & baby gate onsite, as well as family friendly board games, puzzles and books.

Guest access
Due to the limited nature of parking in the Capitola Village, we are lucky to have a garage. However, anything larger than a mid-sized SUV will not fit in your garage. We do have an additional carport, however, which may be used for larger trucks & SUVs, and is available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please message me as soon as possible, if you would like to use it.

There's also street parking all around the cottage, but it can be tough to find a spot on summer weekends. Street parking is limited to two hours between 8AM and 5PM. There's also a large (and very safe) public parking lot at the top of Monterey Avenue, where you can park all day/overnight (up to 72 hrs) at a reasonable rate using the ParkMobile App.

Other things to note
I am available for concierge services. If you would like groceries already stocked in the fridge, a special cake, balloons, a personalized gift bag, additional flowers, etc., please message me for details.

The cottage is located on a quieter one-way street. However, street noise may be noticeable during peak hours from nearby Monterey Avenue.

Born in the 70s
Where I went to school: UCSC
Prior to staying home with my 3 children (ages 9, 1 2 & 13) I managed small inns here in Santa Cruz and Capitola for 13 years. I worked everything from front desk to housekeeping to food service within the hotels, eventually becoming property manager for multiple properties. The 5 Capitola beach homes that I manage now, 2 of my own and 3 for other wonderful families, are my pride & joy. I absolutely love hosting people and am always striving to provide the best guest experience possible.
